This document describes the narrator's family, which includes their 10-year-old brother Juancho who loves striped shirts, lizards, and spiders and eats Italian food, their bald Uncle Marcelino who is an engineer who plays electric guitar to relax, their thin mother Alicia who likes black dresses and dancing, their father Robinson who works in business, their thin sister Ana who enjoys reading Edgar Allan Poe, and their grandparents Toño and Lupita who frequently argue but truly care for each other.
